crucible
I dont get any of them... like idk what to write at all. The notes i have i can't really apply to anything (i'm braindead about this whole book)
1. In what ways does John Proctor, a guilt ridden, self-confessed sinner, prove that he is a moral character. Please cite evidence from the play to support your response.
(notes I have: confessed affair, going to jail for wife)
2. How does Elizabeth Proctor earn your sympathy as the play develops -- specifiacally from the moment you meet her in Act 2 through the end of the plan, when she says about her husband, "He has his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!" Please cite evidence from the play to support your response.
(notes I have: willingly goes when arrested, courtroom in Act 3, saves family, husband doesn't judge)
3. How does Act 3 serve as the play's climax (the point of highest dramatic tension and/or major turning point in the action)? Please cite evidence from the play to support your response
(notes I have: when he's going to jail "oh god", "confessing", mary warren, a williams)
4. One of the most prominent themes in The Crucible is the importance of the name. Analyze what a good name means to such characters as Rev. Paris, Abigail Williams, and John Proctor, using specific examples to support your conclusions.
(notes I have: tries to save name, concerned about rep, people don't like him, lies to keep name (john p)& abigail flees.)
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!!

Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
No problem. I don't The play came from a large school textbook, so this will be difficult to cite with the page variations. However, I will do my best.
1) a. John is alone with his former lover (Abigail). Abigail tries to tempt him yet he refuses. [Act 1- Abigail: Give me a word, John. A soft word.
Proctor: No,no, Abby. That's done with.]
2)
3)
4)a.John knows that he can bring down Abigail and stop her accusations for witchcraft, but he fears for his good name if his hidden sin of adultery is revealed. [Act II]
b. Parris is concerned with his reputation as a reverend if the town finds out that Betty's sickness is due to practicing witchcraft [start of Act I]
I'LL EDIT THIS LATER, GIVING MORE ANSWERS. I just have some homework to finish.
